here, mraz seems to be hitting just the C# note (4),
however if you want a fuller sound
i suggest playing (4302x) once
and then moving to the Dm (or whatever it’s called).

(1)
our friends, they sit on the front porch
telling jokes and they swing swiftly towards happier times
they expended all of those lines
finding more energy for the effort
and getting distance from that front porch spotlight
but us we found peace in shadows long enough
to see the monsters rise
candy’s got some space to fill up up
in her daydreams living high on yesterday’s lie
and talking to me about some 0
talking to me, talking to me, screamin at me
talking to me, talking with me, screamin at me
(2)about the 0, the 0, all the little differences that she makes
oh the 0, the 0, all the inches that she gains
she talkin to me about some 0 percentages
and how (pause)
she got a better deal than the next guy
(3)and the way the lightning shocked us
when we were lost and looking down that long
highway
our hair was longer then and now I can’t remember
so now how would I remember oh so well
and it’s almost all too well
(2)oh the roads unencumbered by cats
they’re burning like wet matches thru my miracle
mind
you left your thumbprint inside me now for months
it seems but mine only brushes your
surface
and somehow it leaves me listless, my tongue curls
under my lips oh oh yes
so I cant speak to tell you of the months before
that I met you love
(3)love, and the way it is, oh
that you feel like us, us oh
right by the time after the lightning it shocked us,
well it shocked us
round and lost that angled byway it there lies
they were sheltered there
and now i can’t remember, and i remember all,
this is all oh, almost all too well
(2)too well,oh oh oh, too well (and so on..)
(bass solo:) hit the chords from Part 2 once each in succession)
(2)if i knew all the words, i would write myself out here
all the colors, i would paint you green and gold in a picture
so i’m told, little sister, so now i’m sold, little sister
why don’t you tell me all about the sunsets in Sweden,
the laws of Eden
and how you were the rock of Gibraltar
and how they called you foxy (FOX-Y!)
that’s another whole box of pandoras,
oh it’s another whole box and it ties
slide your foot on the gas, before we crash
right back into the median
right back into the median, the median
(2)our house, from the middle of the street…
(in Italian/Spanish!)
(2)sittin’ on the front porch telling jokes
and they swing swiftly towards happier times
expending lines and finding more energy for the effort
and getting distance from that front porch spotlight
but us we found peace in shadows long enough
to see that monsters die
oh long enough to see that monster die, that monster die…
well if it isn’t enough, if it isn’t enough…
if ain’t then it won’t, if it can’t than it don’t…
